Pursuant to the Florida Sunshine Law, I hereby request the following records:
A spreadsheet listing all officer-involved shootings investigated by or otherwise reported to FDLE from 2013-2020, including incident-level information specifying the date of each incident, race and gender of all subjects involved, what weapon if any they were armed with, any injuries or deaths resulting from the incident, the names of all officers involved, whether administrative investigations found the incidents to be justified under police department policy and any disciplinary actions taken against the officers as a result of the incident. If all aspects of this request are not available, please provide all relevant information responsive to this request.

Searches were conducted through FDLE's files for records based on the information you provided. Attached are records in response to your public records request, but we do not have a spreadsheet with all the information requested. For additional information, you may want to request the case summaries and state attorney dispositions on the cases. These records are provided pursuant to Florida's Public Records Law, Chapter 119, Florida Statutes.
Please be advised that FDLE is not the custodian of all criminal justice agency records for the state of Florida. Your public records request; PRR-2021-1861 is now closed.
